1972 Blazer Roll Bar - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Did some of the 1972 Blazers come factory with a roll bar? Any help would be great!

THANKS!

I don't believe so. All the GM brochures and option lists I've seen do not show/list a roll bar option.

all of the trucks I've seen have them but I have never seen it on an options sheet

I have heard many people say they have a factory roll bar and they all look the same. The rear suports usually go down to the top of the wheel well.

I would say the have to be factory. My dad and I have owned 5 4x4 Blazers between us over the years and 3 have had the same roll bar. (not too thick)

2wdblazer- That's what I thought too. They were made from somethink like 1.5" tubing.

By the way, I noticed on Blazerworld.net that there is a Blazer for sale in Florida. I thought of you because I know you were looking for so long without a single 4wd for sale down that way. I think you got a better deal from the description of this one:
1970 k5 blazer for sale: 307 V8, 67,000 miles on engine. Tranny rebuilt less than 1,000 miles ago. Axle has been swapped from a D44 to corp.10 bolt in order to have power disc brakes. I will include the old D44 in sale. Corbeau seats, 4" skyjacker lift, 33" BFG M/T's, many more goodies. The all important rocker panels and cab supports have been repaired!!!! I am asking 5,000. If interested feel free to email me with any questions at vegaries@cox.net

Yeah, I am very satisfied with my Truck. New Pics to come in like 1 or 2 days.

bouncytruck · 09-16-2003, 11:32 AM

can't wait for the pics! Get some with your 2wd next to it! It would be cool to see the difference in height!

2wdBlazer · 09-16-2003, 12:48 PM

Pics will be scanned tonight. Can I e-mail them to someone? I have a hell of a time resizing and posting around here.

bouncytruck · 09-16-2003, 05:30 PM

You can send them to me. I'll re-size and post them for you. chris@imageink.com.
